Practicing according to the principles of evidence-based medicine involves the application of national practice guidelines, current clinical research, and experience to guide the diagnosis of a condition and selection of appropriate treatment. Although this practice is important in all fields of health care today, it is becoming increasingly important in specialty pharmacy. Given that drug spending for specialty pharmaceuticals is growing at 2.5 times the rate of nonspecialty spending1 and that total health care costs for specialty patients are 17.5 times higher than nonspecialty patients,2 increased focus has been placed on the use of specialty medications and concern over how to manage costs while ensuring appropriate utilization and quality care.. Specialty pharmacy is a growing area of pharmacy practice focused on providing drug therapy management and dispensing services for patients requiring treatment with medications that are used to treat rare, chronic, or genetic conditions. Patients ...

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality has pursued its commitment to evidence-based practice through research and programs that have produced important new information about the benefits, risks, costs, and cost-effectiveness of specific treatments and technologies for common and costly conditions such as back pain, prostate disease, and pneumonia (5-7). Perhaps the most visible commitment to evidence-based practice was AHRQs support of a clinical practice guideline program that produced 19 guidelines from 1990 to 1996 (http://www.ahrq.gov/clinic/cpgonline.htm) on important conditions such as heart failure and otitis media (8). A program initially requested by Congress, the guidelines proved popular with many stakeholders, and their explicit methods helped elevate the standards for evidence-based guidelines. At the same time, they also revealed limitations of centrally developed, government-sponsored guidelines. The process of convening individual panels, commissioning background ...

Teaching evidence-based medicine (EBM) to medical students can be tough, and even the most enthusiastic champions of EBM concede that many (most?) medical students emerge unconvinced of EBMs value. Some students just dont get it; others see EBM as idealistic, impractical, and unable to overcome the barriers of limited time, evidence, and generalizability. Students want quick and simple answers to myriad questions, which are often more complicated than they seem. But EBM and its teaching were initially devised for qualified doctors who were already accustomed to the subtleties and vagaries of clinical practice; answers are rarely quick or simple ...

We propose using appropriate-use criteria (AUC) as the methodology of choice for formulating and disseminating evidence-based medicine guidelines in sports medicine and arthroscopy. AUC provide a structured process for integrating findings from the scientific literature with clinical judgment to produce explicit criteria for determining the appropriateness of specific treatments. The use of AUC will enable surgeons to treat patients in a more consistent manner based on expert clinical consensus and evidence-based medicine.

Normal systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure is defined as ,95th percentile for the childs age, gender, and height percentile.1 Stage 1 hypertension (HTN) is SBP and/or DBP ≥95th percentile but ,99th percentile+5 mm Hg; Stage 2 HTN is SBP and/or DBP ,99th percentile +5 mm Hg. It is important to measure BP by auscultation with a cuff that covers ≥80% of the midarm circumference; a smaller cuff can result in artificially high readings.1 Ambulatory BP monitoring demonstrates that daytime SBP, DBP, and mean arterial BP increase significantly with increasing BMI.25 Although the pathophysiology of HTN in children with obesity is not fully understood,26 hyperinsulinemia, adipokine activation, perinephric fat effects on the kidney and cytokine action on the vascular endothelium, and cortisol and nitric oxide levels are contributory.27-29. Diagnosing and managing HTN quickly and effectively may affect long-term morbidity. Increased BMI in childhood predicts arterial stiffening in ...

Ashwagandha is one of the most widely studied adaptogenic (helps body adapt to stress) herbs on the planet. Its use dates back to before there was written records and it is alleged to have a wide range of health applications, mostly relating to the fact that it can reduce stress (both physical indications and mental perception).. We discuss the anti-stress benefits of Ashwagandha in this article, but in the context of Epicenter, Team Six Supplements is likely concerned with preliminary research which indicates Ashwagandha can increase Testosterone slightly, but enough to elicit muscle and strength gains.. Further research has confirmed that Ashwagandha (KSM-66) can restore sex hormone levels and sperm count in instances of infertility, adding to the notion that it is indeed an effective natural Testosterone boosting agent.. Epicenter contains a standardized, reliable form of Ashwagandha known as KSM-66. We generally recommend either KSM-66 or Sensoril, as the liklihood that a non-brand name ...

Safed Musli is an Indian herb which has traditionally been used as an aphrodisiac and remedy for sexual dysfunction.. A 2011 study, published in Andrologia, found that mice fed Safed Musli experienced improved erectile function on par with low dose Testosterone treatment.. No studies have directly tested the effects of Safed Musli on testosterone, but a 2009 study noted increased prostatic weigh in mice fed 200mg/kg/day for 30 days, indicative of increased Testosterone.. Unfortuantely, this study did not measure serum Testosterone, so it cant be definitively stated that the results were due to increased Testosterone.. Due to the lack of human studies, Safed Musli still has a long way to go before it can be considered an effective test-booster, but the preliminary evidence suggests that, at the very least, it may enhance libido and improve sexual health. So, in the context of Stoked XT, it makes sense.. ...

Gout is the most common form of inflammatory arthritis. Hyperuricaemia is the pre-requisite for gout and is influenced by variable modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors. Clinical features unique for gout are due to deposition of monosodium urate (MSU) crystal in articular and extra articular tissues. Among various treating agents, anti-inflammatory drugs and urate lowering therapies (ULT) are used widely and successfully, however, non-medicinal means are also effective in the disorder. In their updated guidelines, ACR (2012) and EULAR (2016) recommended both medicinal and non-medicinal approaches that could be used in treating gout, though some of the recommendations are based on lower level of evidence. Moreover, researchers’ continued effort in finding new gout managing agents appear promising, for example, role of Lesinurad in gout management (CLEAR1, CLEAR2). In this new synthesis the author is aimed to provide updated information on gout management based on a systematic review including

While assessments are often used as screeners or diagnostic tools, they can also be helpful tools throughout treatment. The integrative Evidence-Based Assessment (EBA) model is a framework for using clinical psychological assessments at all stages of clinical care: for prediction, prescription, and process.[58] With prediction of adolescent substance disorder, consistent use of brief screeners for substance use in mental health and medical care settings can catch substance use that would otherwise go undetected, allowing for early intervention and treatment implementation.[59][60] In the absence of these screeners, clinical judgement alone underestimates adolescent substance use and often doesnt identify the problem until late-stage behavioral issues become apparent.[61] With prescription, assessments can help a clinician determine the best treatment plan for an adolescent with a substance use disorder, considering the individual holistically. In this vein, assessments can help the ...

From the clinical perspective, the study design and the ensuing LOE classification may not always be the most important factor to consider while assessing the available evidence. Occasionally, even a well conducted RCT may not necessarily generate new knowledge superior to the knowledge gained from a case series study. Thus an RCT may be less significant to the clinical decision making than a case series study. For example, when a clinician assesses the benefits and risks of a possible treatment modality, the use of LOE alone can be misleading. An historical example is the use of Bisphosphonates for dental purposes:. Bisphosphonates (BPs) are a class of drugs that inhibit bone resorption and they are successfully used across a wide range of medical disciplines for bone diseases (Molvik & Khan 2015; Costa 2014; Anagha & Sen 2014; Giusti 2014; Bhatt et al. 2014; Eriksen et al. 2014). However, like any drug, BPs possess the risk of side effects. BPs-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) has been ...

Translating scientific evidence into evidence-based practice in the real world has been challenging for many reasons, ranging from the lack of generalisability of results from highly controlled clinical trial situations to barriers arising from organisational, cultural and personal factors.1 Yet, it is critical that we overcome these barriers if we are to really improve patient outcomes. In particular, evidence for efficacy of implementation of evidence-based practices on a large scale has been lacking. In this study, the authors prospectively examined a large cohort of infants (n=7336) born preterm (between 24+0 and 31+6 weeks gestational age) in 335 … ...
